Frequently Asked Questions

How much should I spend on a product launch?

Launch budgets typically range from 10-30% of first-year revenue targets. Critical launches may warrant more. Consider competitive pressure and market timing.

How should I split launch budget?

A common split is 30% PR/earned media, 40% paid advertising, 20% events/activations, and 10% influencer partnerships. Adjust based on your product and audience.

When should launch promotion start?

Begin teaser campaigns 4-6 weeks before launch. Ramp up the final 2 weeks with major push on launch day and sustain for 2-4 weeks after.

Should I do a launch event?

Events create buzz and media moments but are expensive. Consider virtual events, influencer unboxings, or exclusive previews as alternatives to large physical events.

How do I measure launch success?

Track media mentions, social engagement, website traffic, demo requests, and sales. Compare to pre-launch baselines and set specific targets for each metric.
